Property Purchase following fast house buy 'Scam' - Wombwell, Barnsley
UK House Buyers recently acquired a three-bedroom terrace house located in Wombwell, a market town nestled between Barnsley and Doncaster.
The homeowners reached out to UK House Buyers via the website contact form, and a team member promptly responded on the same day. They disclosed that they were in the midst of finalizing a deal with another quick house buying company, only to have the offer significantly reduced by £14,000 during the later stages of the process.
A meeting was scheduled for the following day at the subject property, where UK House Buyers had already conducted their property valuation beforehand. On the spot, a cash offer was made to the sellers, accompanied by a promise not to decrease the offer, providing the sellers with the reassurance of a guaranteed sale.
The property was valued at around £72,000, but the urgency arose from the sellers needing to sell the house to secure their dream new build home. With only 13 days to complete the sale to avoid breaching their contract and risking their deposit, an agreement was reached at £62,000 with a ten-day completion time frame. The sellers were relieved of any agent fees or additional costs. (it turned out that this was actually more than the initial property buying firm offered BEFORE they reduced their offer by thousands of pounds)
The transaction was successfully finalized in early 2024, allowing the sellers to transition to their dream home seamlessly.
Hopefully this fast house buying case study offers valuable insights for readers.
